England Wrap Up and Arts News
I’ve been back in the states for over a week now. There are days it feels like I never left in the first place. There are always a little bit of the blues whena trip ends. That’s how you know I had a good … Read More
What Was That
That was my time in the UK whizzing past at a bit over the speed of sound. I fly back in the morning. I should rightly be in bed already. I for some reason thought I had a flight back around 1pm but checked … Read More
Looking Back
I have no idea where to begin. I really haven’t properly logged my experience in Cornwall, and I don’t have my notes with me and I’m bushed. For the moment, we’ll leave it at incredible. Newquay was a gorgeous piece of earth, as was all … Read More
Where Lands End
Day 3 in the UK. I wandered a lot my first afternoon. Bright and early the next morning was my meeting with the Haggis Tour bus for my Cornwall tour. It’s a relatively small group of 10, which I think is fairly good as … Read More
Pyramids – As Seen on TV
I’m slowly getting over the crud, but Friday heading for Boston (business meeting Monday that I was able to roll into some me time). So, I’m at a standstill for the moment on editing photos. However, there are plenty of the pyramids and a … Read More
Egypt – Wiped Out
Where to begin after days of no internet access. Yes, the withdrawal pains were hell at first. Actually, I barely noticed if not for the piles of e-mail to wade through just now. Last night in Luxor, we did the sound and light show … Read More
Egypt Time
Time is passing quickly here, but it’s passing on Egypt time, which turns out to be very similar to Mexican time. Nothing is quite on time, but no one seems to care so I’m gradually getting used to it again. It does take a … Read More
Next Stop?
Well, I’ve been debating this one for quite awhile. I kept waffling. I discovered that I had built up a pile of points with my American Express card over the past few years. It helps that up until this month, I could charge work … Read More
Should Have Taken That Left At Albuquerque
Ahh, the beach is just beautiful. The sand is so… uhm… Sandy… and the ocean is… so… uhm… calm… yeh, must be right? It´s funny, if I was a halfway decent writer, most of my posts could have been from my living room. Just … Read More
One Dollar, One Dollar
Okay, so after yesterday´s post was some laying about. I tried to find the starting point of the bus tour but failed. Either not the right place or I expect things to be on time, which is not per se the way the world … Read More
Edinburgh or Bust or Both
First, if you spot some strange characters, it’s going to take me a bit to get used to the UK keys again, so bear with and all that jazz. With each trip, I seem to be more haphazardly packing at the last minute. This … Read More
Dead Feet Don’t Dance Or Something Like That
Long day. Up earlier than usual to see Brandy off to the train bound for the airport and her flight home. Two more days I’ll be doing the same trek myself. Since I was up early, I decided that I would go check out … Read More
Edinburgh Continues
Another morning in Edinburgh. Back in McD’s. Up too early to take advantage of the breakfast provided by the hostel. Haven’t eaten here yet either, so this will probably be short. I had a good time yesterday. Rode the train up to Dunfermline, which … Read More
